Charlene Lamy Edge Speaks about The Way International

What did I say in my first published interview?  In the summer of 2017, not long after Undertow was published, Professor Maria Moss at Leuphana University in Lüneburg, Germany , invited me to give a presentation about my cult experience to students and faculty in the American Studies Department.  Afterwards, she interviewed me for the blog the department publishes.  Part I:   American Studies Blog Here's a bit from Part II's intro: "After  last week’s introduction  to the seductive power of the fundamentalist cult 'The Way International' and the practice of speaking in tongues, in this installment, readers will find out more about both  Charlene Edge’s  'faded scars' as well as memories of happier times while serving The Way."

Besides ex-followers from my age group (over 60 yrs.), numerous second-generation followers have contacted me after they read Undertow , surprised at how my story put a lot of pieces together for them about their experiences in The Way, pieces their parents either didn't know or didn't want to discuss....
